Stand-out picture book from the winner of the Waterstones Children’s Gift of the Year, Frann Preston-Gannon. Dave loves his cave. Inside, it’s decorated EXACTLY the way he likes it. Outside there is a lovely spot for a fire and the grass is always lovely and green. But Dave is unhappy. What if there might be an even better cave out there? When he sets in search of a new home, it turns out that good caves are hard to find. They're either too small, or too big, or too full of bats, until he finds one that looks MUCH more promising. Outside has the perfect space for a fire and the grass is greener than any he's ever seen . . . But why does it look so familiar?
Characters: Dave

It's off to the beach with Farmer Jack, Dino Dog and all of the dinosaurs! Written with the same deadpan and instructional style of text as Dinosaur Farm that contrasts with the chaos of the illustrations, children will love watching the dinosaurs go about their day seemingly oblivious to the destruction that they cause.
Characters: Jack
Introduce your little dino fans to Dinosaur Farm! What needs doing today? Jolly Farmer Jack and his pet dino-dog have lots to do! First the Pterodactyl eggs need collecting. Then the Triceratops need to be let out to graze. Of course the Diplodocus need a good scrub after their mud bath - they do get very messy! As the day goes on, Jack faces all kinds of crazy situations - the Pterodactyl were not the most co-operative when it came to collecting their eggs, the Diplodocus's bath time was a bit more exciting than it was meant to be and the boisterous Tricerotops sent him flying as they rushed out of their pen! Exhausted after his daily chores, Jack collapses into bed. But wait! Did he remember to close the gate to the T-Rex pen?!
